To help countdown the days, I will be sharing the scrapbook pages I created from our trip in 2006. That trip was to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary.
I used a Mickey shaped serving container as a guide for my brads.
Pictures of us on the plane and Magic Express. The airplane came from Gina’s Treasure Chest on ebay. The cloud lifts up to reveal this journaling:
10/19/08: I was up at 3:30 am, showered and got ready. Gary was up at 4am to shower and dress. We finished packing the last minute toiletry items and woke Nikolas up at 4:30. He had a little breakfast and got dressed. The limo got to our house at 5am. The chauffeur was a very slow driver, but still got us to O’Hare in 30 minutes. We got to our gate and Nikolas was hungry. So Nikolas and I headed to McDonald's. He got some pancakes and I got the fruit and walnut snack. When we got back to the gate, Gary took Nikolas to the bathroom. While they were gone, our flight started to board. As soon as they got back, they called our group. Nikolas was great on his first airplane ride. He watched Scooby Doo DVDs, did workbook pages and played with the vintage Animal Kingdom Happy Meal toys I had gotten for him on Ebay. We split a Sierra Mist and he really enjoyed the in-flight graham crackers.
Once at Orlando airport, we had a potty break and headed for Magic Express, Disney’s transportation service from the airport to the resort hotels. Nikolas enjoyed the bus ride (another first) and the WDW commercial shown on board.
Another paper piecing from Gina’s Treasure Chest and pattern paper from a scrapbook kit I picked up at WDW.
Journaling reads:
I checked us in while Gary and Nikolas watched Lilo and Stitch on the TV in the lobby. The cast member that checked us in gave me a 1st Trip button for Nikolas and two Happy Anniversary buttons for Gary and I. She gave us our room number even though she said it would be about an hour before our room was ready. I told her that was fine. We needed to eat lunch first anyway. We headed for the World Premiere food court. Nikolas had the kid’s spaghetti meal with apple sauce, grapes that came in a Mickey Mouse head plate and orange soda. Gary and I both got the souvenir mugs, which you can use to get free refills at the hotel for your entire trip. I got a taco salad and Gary ate a cheeseburger and fries. Nikolas enjoyed watching the cartoons they played in the food court through out our stay.
This is a pocket page I made that holds the map and other information about All Star Movies. The pattern paper and accents were from a kit I got through Creative Memories. The photos are of the towel basket that “mouse-keeping” left in our window and the pizza box from the night we had pizza delivered to our room.
After we at lunch, I picked up some scrapbook supplies in the gift shop. We headed to our room but it still was not ready, so we walked around the hotel grounds. We would have left to go to Epcot, but we now were carrying the two refillable mugs and my scrapbook supplies along with our carry-on backpack that was extra heavy due to the portable DVD player.
I used the same pattern papers for all the building pictures. I don’t recall the brand, but it shimmers. I cut the die cut movie boards at Archivers and used a white pen for the titles.
Our room was in the Love Bug section
The pictures of the Toy Story section were actually taken the last day of our trip.
